How to Solve & Automate Unique Company or Project-Specific VDC Needs with EVOLVE Utilities

August 29, 2025

No two contractors approach modeling the same way. Some companies are strict about bend angles. Others demand unique numbering systems. Projects often bring their own requirements too, such as, special formatting for parameters, visibility rules, or labeling conventions.

These unique standards are critical for quality, but managing them manually can slow teams down and introduce errors. That’s why EVOLVE Utilities are designed to adapt to each company’s and project’s needs.

Here’s how each Utility helps you solve unique VDC challenges through automation:

1. Workset Manager

Challenge: Every company has different standards for controlling visibility in Revit, but keeping worksets accurate is tedious.
 Solution: Automate workset assignments to enforce your company’s rules project-wide, saving hours of rework.

2. Parameter Sync

Challenge: Projects require data formatted in specific ways, like stacking values into descriptions or pulling parameters from subcontractor models.
 Solution: Automate parameter management with custom rules so your deliverables always meet requirements.

3. Colorizer

Challenge: Every team defines “acceptable” modeling differently, from trimmed elbows to metadata completeness. Manual QAQC is slow and inconsistent.
 Solution: Visual checks flag non-compliant elements instantly, customized to your standards.

4. Renumber

Challenge: Custom numbering and labeling needs vary by project and contractor. Manual numbering wastes time and invites mistakes.
 Solution: Apply flexible renumbering rules to quickly align with project-specific requirements.


Proof in Action

Our power users have shown what’s possible:

·       Large electrical contractors using Workset Manager to enforce company-wide standards.

·       Mechanical teams saving days of work with automated parameter syncing.

·       QAQC processes that used to take hours now completed in minutes with Colorizer.

By tailoring these utilities to their unique company and project needs, they’ve turned customization into a competitive advantage.

 

The Bottom Line:
 Every contractor has unique modeling standards. Every project has unique requirements. Without automation, those differences create extra work and risk. With EVOLVE Utilities, you can enforce your standards, adapt to project-specific needs, and automate the manual work that slows you down.
